Hello sir,I understand your concern.In my opinion fever might not be due to vaccine.See for any associated features like flu,any urinary problems like burning urination or any.You can take paracetamol tablet for fever and cold sponging and see for 2 days.If fever is not decreasing or any associated features you see consult your gynaecologist for apt treatment.Take adequate fluids upto 2 to 3 litres.
